wear your conquerer title with pride - and wait as casual tears bring that crashing down too.

It IS Bolvar. There's positively no doubt about it.

The comical side is that nobody is pointing out that it makes no sense. Bolvar gets poisoned, then he sees dragons flying and them burning everything (including him) down.
Makes sense with the lavaman model.

Only that dragons are still there. The lich king left before Bolvar died. Alex and co. are still there, burning and watching over the place, with such a strong presence that even Alliance and Horde get debuffed with such magical effects that make unable to take a simple action as buffing or even mounting. The dragonflight has the place in check, so strongly that there's even ingame effects applied.

How the hell did Arthas get Bolvar's body?

Of course we can play that card that somehow between Bolvar seeing dragons burning him down and, well, dragons landing some fire immune Lich King servant sneaked up through the closed gate, snatched the body and teleported away unseen by a dozen elder dragons and untouched by an aura so strong that it prevents people to use mounts.
We can, but shoddy narrative remains shoddy.

Blizzard killed Bolvar to fuel the storyline of Alliance and Horde's hate for each other. Now they're picking him again and in all honesty, the logical structure of the process reminds me more of a Beautiful episode than good fantasy narrative. It makes no sense, but oh well, it's WoW I guess.

* Gaining reputation with the Ashen Verdict in Icecrown Citadel will grant players access to upgradeable rings from Ormus the Penitent. Players can switch between the type of ring (melee/caster/tank/healer) at any point in the upgrade path for 200g.

If they give spirit to caster ring i'm gonna shoot myself:x

No wait...it's gonna have spirit AND hit, because there's not enough +hit items int he game

Re: Patch 3.3 PTR Build 10623

i was reading through this post, and saw a few guys talking about lavaman, and how could he be a bolvar/lich king-minion if he's in flames. Well if you remember Dragonblight, arthas was raising black dragon bodies, and they were covered in shadows and flame... so a fire undead minion isn't so new. Also you have skellies covered in flames in our good old andorhall

I'll point you to my post on page 17. Even if it's Bolvar (and he most likely is), what makes no sense is that the Lich King left before he was burned, and the Dragonflight had the place into check ever since. There's no timeframe in which Arthas could have collected Bolvar's body, the gate has not opened ever since, and none of his servants could have sneaked out and recovered his body under the nose of Alex and co.

yet bolvar's body is nowhere to be found when you fly down to speak with alexstraza...

10 years ago we had Steve Jobs, Bob Hope and Johnny Cash. Now we have no Jobs, no Hope and no Cash.

Also, i think the paladin set will be really nice looking in game, with all that flames, its nice hail to the bolvar.

Also, since you all want to speculate about this ...

I like the gold burned into bolvars skin, not only on his chest. I know that he doesnt have it in yoggs vission, but the true is that he was burned in his armour, so the leftovers of melted metal are kinda logical there. Atleast we already know that he will really have special fate..
